Ok so say I wanted to play Oklahoma at +2 for 770 to win 700
Here is a different way of making the play
michigan st to win by 1-3 200 to win 1600
oklahoma to win 1-3 200 to win 1700
oklahoma -3.5 adjusted line 300 to win 600
In the regular play of oklahoma +2 every time oklahoma loses by 2 its a push an when they lose by 3 its a loss
In this play when oklahoma loses by 1-3 you win 1100 total
when oklahoma wins by 1-3 you win 1200 total
when oklahoma wins by 4 or more you only win 200 total
so the advantages are instead of losing at -3 you win
instead of pushing at -2 you win
when the game is won by either team by between 1-3 points you win big
When oklahoma wins by more than 4 you only win the 200
Would you rather play Oklahoma +2 770 to win 700
or would you rather play the three various bets with different payouts?
Personally if I was going to play this, I'd just take Oklahoma +2 or ML at +110. 770 Seems like a lot of additional risk to just win 200 with the hopes of a one position game to win 1200
